Magazine Worthy!
Better Homes and Gardens is a magazine worth purchasing and reading. The content is informative. The articles and material are classic.

I used to love BHG, but it seems less "oo, ah" than it once was...
I am not sure if the internet is driving my perspective, but it seems that the monthly offerings in BHG are just 'meh." Like the magazine I received this month. There were pictures of privileged people who bought an old stone house and refurbished it in grand modern style. I mean....common, who in the bottom 60% of Americans will EVER be able to afford a fancy place like that??? In the country, with a 40 minute drive outside a large city (i.e. where property values are the highest....look up "Donut Syndrome" which is sociological term, describing White privilege moving to suburbs. They had a lovely pool, gardens, and great big windows. Yeah--who wouldn't like that? I have looked into installing a small (12' x 24') swimming pool in my small yard, and even with looking at more 'affordable" options, like a fiberglass small pool, with permits and grade work, concrete coping/deck work, plumbing/drainoff work, security gates, filtration and window/door alarms (coding requirements)...it's $40,000+ for the 'lesser" quality stuff. Who the hell can afford that???? If BHG actually high lighted more modest homes and showed what people have done with small affordable spaces to make them nicer, then maybe they would be relevant. After flipping through this month's magazine, I felt like it was peddling a lie--most Americans will never have ANYTHING remotely close to what is in that magazine. Probably won't renew my subscription, unless future issues are more down to earth and relevant to average people. I am not a "keep up with the Jone's" type of person, but I do value a happy living environment, so either I am not affluent enough for this magazine, or it is only targeting people with enough disposable income to $40,000 a year projects on their home. Ain't me. It would take me more than 10 years to be able to do something that grand (if I were lucky, barring any unforeseen catastrophes), more like a once in a lifetime expense.

I was pleasantly surprised by this old standby!
I was pleasantly surprised by this old standby! I got a free subscription and figured I'd just pass the magazines along to my grandma, but I found the articles, recipes, gardening tips, and photos to be modern, relevant and interesting! It actually reminds me of how Martha Stewart Living used to be. It's definitely worth the subscription, I just renewed mine for another year.

Terrific price
This was a great price for a printed publication - I can't believe how much magazines are at the news stand! I love BHG and this was a very economical way to get it. Thanks Amazon!

Enjoy the magazine, but how many issues?
I enjoy this magazine. I subscribed to the print subscription so I can tear out pages with recipes or ideas to try, and it's an inexpensive way to have some pleasant leisure time. I do have a question: How many issues should I get? I believe the print subscription for a year is 12 issues, but I have noticed issues sometimes combine two months and I am also missing a month or two. Are their "special" issues that are added to give me 12 issues?
